11th February, 2016: BSE Institute, a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of BSE Limited, announced the launch of its much awaited online platform – www.bsevarsity.com – today.
During the launch, Mr. Ambarish Datta, MD & CEO of BSE Institute Ltd. said “We have always aimed at spreading our wings across those regions and countries where there is a need and demand of financial markets education, but is not available. Our government’s Digital India initiative movement has taken pace with more and more people becoming digitally savvy and well connected to the online world. www.bsevarsity.com is one such platform which offers finance courses and learning to anybody and everybody in this world on the click of a button, whether you are on your desktop/laptop or on your Smartphone.”
www.bsevarsity.com has the facility of online payment as well. BSE Institute has a team of dedicated professionals working on the content of these courses offered, which are in lines with the current industry requirements.
This step has enabled BSE Institute Ltd to bring to learners across the globe the knowledge and insights into the capital markets industry, garnered by BSE over the past 140 years. BSE, the fastest stock exchange in the world, with a trading speed of 6 micro seconds has been enabling high speed trading. The launch of www.bsevarsity.com – “the new way of high speed learning”, will now enable learning at the speed of thought.
Through this, BSE Institute aims to address the major challenge faced by students and professionals whereby the knowledge that they acquire from conventional sources is not only out dated but also not aligned to application in the workplace environment. This is an even bigger challenge for students from tier 2 and tier 3 cities, who have almost no access to industry experts. A wide range of audiences will be addressed ranging from undergraduate programs, to post graduate programs, to niche programs for senior professionals.
Building on these obvious strengths of online learning platforms, www.bsevarsity.com the online platform of the BSE Institute offers a wide range of cutting edge courses in the domain of finance, capital markets, banking and insurance. The courses contain video lectures, live webinars, discussions, case studies and assignments leading to a certificate from BSE Institute. The established strengths of the BSE Institute, – industry aligned contemporary curriculum taught by leading market experts, will now be available to learners all over the world at the click of a mouse. In addition students from the remotest part of the country will now be able to learn global best practices and acquire global certifications and aspire for international jobs.
The Digital India initiative, launched by our Honorable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, plans to connect rural areas with high-speed internet networks. So the courses from global financial experts and industry leaders will soon be accessible through www.bsevarsity.com in the small towns and rural areas of our country.
